Report Number 817
When: 12/11/23
Where: Middleton in Teesdale
There was a group of cows with calves in the field, at the far end.
I had my dog on a lead as we walked through the field.
I was on a public footpath, walking through the field and a group of possibly 20 cows charged across the field towards us. They attacked my dog initially, throwing him into the air and then turned on me throwing me to the ground. They then tried to trample on both of us while we were on the ground.
I was able to get up and I ran, they chased us for 1/4 of a mile.
My dog is sore and possibly bruised.
I have reported this to the Health and Safety Executive, they are investigating.
